Chapter 1194 (1/2)

At this time, the sunset is scattering the last afterglow on the base, and the fighters of the whole base are shrouded in a layer of gray light.

”Major berkershkin, welcome to Petersburg.” After he jumped off the plane, the commander of the base, Colonel Alexander golofanov, said to him, ”you've come so quickly.”

The movement of troops is not a matter of saying a word. It involves all aspects. After receiving the order, the 16th fighter aviation regiment of Jinwei is the first mig-3 fighter unit to arrive. At the same time, their ground crew has also boarded the train and will arrive here in the middle of the night. When it is dawn tomorrow, They're going on a combat cruise near Petersburg.

Other air groups will arrive in Petersburg tomorrow morning.

With the fatigue of transition on his face, pokrashkin said: ”it's a great honor that we can fight side by side. I hope the ground service can help us take off the auxiliary fuel tank first and fill us with fuel. We will fight and take off at any time.”

Although the Germans said that they would not come until noon tomorrow, if they believed the opponent's promise, they would definitely be laughed off. This is not the scene of gentleman duel a thousand years ago. In order to win, any means can be used.

No matter when there is an enemy, they should go out immediately, even when they are just flying over and tired.

”Captain, I really want to go out now.” Just as berkershkin communicated with the base commander, his wingman lechkarov also got off his plane, twisted his almost frozen head and said to berkershkin.

Looking at his face and nose swollen with cold, berkeshkin's head was incomparably big: ”did you not close the hatch?”

In this era, all planes have no convertible, but many pilots are reluctant to cover their heads, which is simply a tradition.

For the mig-3, this is almost life-saving. This aircraft is flawed in design. When flying at high altitude and high speed, its cockpit cover cannot be opened.

In other words, if there is a failure in this case, the pilot can't parachute to escape. However, there's nothing to say. Really, in this case, you can't parachute. If you jump out at high speed, you have to hit the vertical tail of the aircraft and die even worse.

However, this argument was not accepted by all pilots. Many people opened the cockpit cover when they took off, and they were frozen into dogs all the way.

When he heard polkreshkin's question, lechkarov had to nod.

”I've told you many times that when the cockpit cover is open, it will reduce the speed of the aircraft. For us, speed is the magic weapon to win. Don't always think about escape!” On the battlefield, those who are afraid of death will die first. Only those who are afraid of death can live long. This is absolutely a truth.

Now, lechkarov looked at the blackened base and said to bockleshkin, ”if it's on the battlefield, I don't want to escape. I still want to kill the enemy. Captain, do you think the Germans will come tonight?”

Looking at his eager men, berkershkin was filled with emotion. In fact, he didn't want the battle to come.

The German bombers left a deep impression on him, and the roaring fw190 engraved a deep mark in his heart. For him, the Germans are a terrible enemy. He doesn't want to be an enemy with each other. They have rich experience. They fight everywhere, and most of their pilots come from the aviation school.

However, they have no choice. This is their mission! In his expectation, there will be a terrible war tomorrow. And tonight, the German harassment will not be less.

The night shrouds the earth. Tonight, many people are destined to be sleepless.
